HTML-formatted Media Captions not supported by Element-IOS client
The Client-Server-API describes in chapter 10.2.2.7 how to set up captions for media
https://spec.matrix.org/unstable/client-server-api/#media-captions
After solution of Issue 27927 Element/Web and Element/Windows are supporting unformatted and HTML-formatted captions.
IOS and Android clients currently do not support captions.
The tests were performed in the following environments:
Element Desktop on Windows 10 pro 22H2 (Build 19045.4780)
Version von Element: 1.11.83
Krypto-Version: Rust SDK 0.7.2 (7a21514), Vodozemac 0.7.0
Element IOS client
Element 1.11.18 (20240917151940)
Matrix SDK 0.27.13
Rust Crypto SDK 0.7.2 (Vodozemac 0.7.0)
The following server and user environment was used:
The generation of events was performed with Python scripts using matrix-nio
Results for Element/Windows and Element/Web are now as expected: the image is show with a formatted caption.
Result for Element/IOS is unexpected: the image is shown without caption.
The sources for these events are nearly identical:
Element/Windows
Element/Web
Element/IOS
A support of formatted captions for Element/IOS client like Element/Windows and Element/Web would be highly appreciated.
